How we handle bath re-enamelling in Holywell Green

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Holywell Green as everywhere else we work.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Holywell Green

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work 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 key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Holywell Green. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, 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 quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Holywell Green?

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

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.
