Bath re-enamelling in Littleworth, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Littleworth

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Littleworth

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Littleworth questions

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

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

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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