Bath re-enamelling for Househillwood homes

What affects the price in Househillwood

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

Bath re-enamelling in Househillwood without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Househillwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Househillwood

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
