Bath re-enamelling near Hopwas

Bath re-enamelling in Hopwas, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Common questions in Hopwas

Is my repair covered?

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

Are you accredited?

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

We work UK-wide, so Hopwas is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hopwas. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Hopwas customers choose us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Hopwas

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Hopwas, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
