About our bath re-enamelling in Little Yeldham

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Little Yeldham

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Yeldham

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

For anyone letting property in or around Little Yeldham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

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

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
