Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kingscote

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and chips and rust in more than one place, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Kingscote

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Common problems we fix in Kingscote

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
