Bath re-enamelling near Keasden

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Keasden. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Keasden

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and stains that won’t shift, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Keasden

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a full day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Keasden

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Comparing quotes

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
