Bath re-enamelling for Leedstown homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Leedstown

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and lots of chips and rust spots, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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

Leedstown: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you come to Leedstown?

We do. We send a technician to Leedstown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Leedstown

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Stains that won’t shift

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
