Bath re-enamelling near Little Ickford

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Little Ickford

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Little Ickford and across Buckinghamshire.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Repair dripping taps early

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Ickford

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Little Ickford: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Do you come to Little Ickford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Ickford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Ickford. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
