Bath re-enamelling near Little Ness

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Bath re-enamelling in Little Ness without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Little Ness. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Little Ness

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Will the new finish last?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Little Ness.

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