Bath re-enamelling at your home in High Easter

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in High Easter?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Common reasons people in High Easter contact us include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in High Easter

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths

What affects the price in High Easter

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

High Easter questions

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you cover the entire of Essex?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover High Easter?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to High Easter. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
