Bath re-enamelling for Kingston Blount homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kingston Blount

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done 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 is what we repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingston Blount

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Do you hold any accreditations?

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Kingston Blount. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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