Book bath re-enamelling in Keelham

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

You do not 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 will reply with a fixed price.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Keelham

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and wear marks under the taps, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keelham: your questions answered

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Keelham?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What affects the price in Keelham

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Keelham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace in Keelham?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
