Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hyde farm estate

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hyde farm estate

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the new finish last?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price 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 photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Hyde farm estate

Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
