Bath re-enamelling in Kerdiston

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

Materials we repair

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

Bath re-enamelling in Kerdiston without replacing anything

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and chips and rust in more than one place, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Kerdiston. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Kerdiston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Kerdiston

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Kerdiston

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kerdiston

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Kerdiston, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

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