Questions from Kingsash

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your HP16 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kingsash

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kingsash?

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Kingsash clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

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.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Kingsash get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
