What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Kirtling. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Kirtling

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Questions from Kirtling

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are there extra charges for Kirtling?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Kirtling?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kirtling from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
