Bath re-enamelling in Littleton, done in place

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. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste.

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

What affects the price in Littleton

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

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.

Common problems we fix in Littleton

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for Littleton

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Littleton

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Littleton?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
