Need bath re-enamelling in Ireton Wood?

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath re-enamelling in Ireton Wood, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common problems we fix in Ireton Wood

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Several chips and rust patches

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to look after the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Ireton Wood: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you come to Ireton Wood?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Ireton Wood and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Ireton Wood

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

Landlord and trade work in Ireton Wood

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
