About our bath re-enamelling in Higher Dinting

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Higher Dinting?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Higher Dinting, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Questions from Higher Dinting

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
