About our bath re-enamelling in Leverburgh

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we are called out for in Leverburgh

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we work on in Leverburgh

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Leverburgh

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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