Bath re-enamelling in Linthurst

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Linthurst get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Linthurst

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and thin, worn enamel in places.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Linthurst: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Worcestershire.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

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

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Linthurst

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
