Bath re-enamelling near Linton

About our bath re-enamelling in Linton

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Materials we work on in Linton

What affects the price in Linton

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Linton. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Linton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Common problems we fix in Linton

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Linton: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
