Bath re-enamelling in Little Wilbraham

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Bath re-enamelling in Little Wilbraham without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Wilbraham

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Little Wilbraham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.

  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. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Little Wilbraham

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Little Wilbraham

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Little Wilbraham?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

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.

Do you come to Little Wilbraham?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Little Wilbraham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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