Bath re-enamelling for Lea Hall homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lea Hall

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and several chips and rust patches, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

What affects the price in Lea Hall

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lea Hall. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lea Hall?

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lea Hall

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens if you find more damage?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lea Hall

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lea Hall use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 usually cheaper.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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