About our bath re-enamelling in Kirkhamgate

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Kirkhamgate. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Kirkhamgate: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Kirkhamgate?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kirkhamgate

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Kirkhamgate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Repair or replace in Kirkhamgate?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

When to call us in Kirkhamgate

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Kirkhamgate

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
