Bath re-enamelling in Holme

About our bath re-enamelling in Holme

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What we’re called out for in Holme

Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

Common reasons people in Holme contact us include:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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 several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

There’s 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holme

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holme use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Holme

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Holme

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
