About our bath re-enamelling in Kexby

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Questions from Kexby

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

When to call us in Kexby

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Kexby?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kexby

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Kexby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kexby, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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