Bath re-enamelling for Longridge homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Longridge

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Longridge

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Do you come to Longridge?

We do. We send a technician to Longridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

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

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PR3 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Longridge, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Longridge?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
