About our bath re-enamelling in Hinton Charterhouse

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Hinton Charterhouse

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hinton Charterhouse

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

If you manage property in Hinton Charterhouse, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
