Bath re-enamelling in Holt

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Holt

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can typically put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Holt. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holt as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Holt

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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 until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price
