How we handle bath re-enamelling in Husborne Crawley

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Husborne Crawley

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Husborne Crawley

Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Questions from Husborne Crawley

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Husborne Crawley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Husborne Crawley?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your MK43 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Husborne Crawley

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Husborne Crawley. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Husborne Crawley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
