Bath re-enamelling in Keyston

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Keyston

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Honest limits

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

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Keyston

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Keyston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Keyston?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Common reasons people in Keyston contact us are:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
