Bath re-enamelling for Hopsford homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hopsford

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

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 is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Hopsford questions

Do you cover Hopsford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hopsford. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hopsford?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CV7 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CV7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
