Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Houghton

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Houghton. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
