About our bath re-enamelling in Kilpin Pike

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Kilpin Pike

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Kilpin Pike. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
