Bath re-enamelling in Inskip, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

When to call us in Inskip

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Inskip

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How long is the bath unusable?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inskip

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inskip as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Inskip, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Repairing versus replacing in Inskip

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
