Trusted bath re-enamelling in Larkhall

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Bath re-enamelling in Larkhall without replacing anything

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Larkhall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we are called out for in Larkhall

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Stains that won’t shift

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Larkhall

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Larkhall. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Larkhall

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Larkhall questions

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Bath and North East Somerset?

All of Bath and North East Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
