Bath re-enamelling for Lower Morton homes

Bath re-enamelling in Lower Morton without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lower Morton and across South Gloucestershire.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Lower Morton

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Common reasons people in Lower Morton contact us are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Wear marks under the taps

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Materials we repair

Common questions in Lower Morton

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are there extra charges for Lower Morton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Lower Morton and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
