Bath re-enamelling for Lower Marlbrook homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Lower Marlbrook

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lower Marlbrook and across Worcestershire.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Lower Marlbrook

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Marlbrook as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of 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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you’re in Lower Marlbrook and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Lower Marlbrook

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you come to Lower Marlbrook?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lower Marlbrook and the rest of Worcestershire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace in Lower Marlbrook?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
