Bath re-enamelling for Lower Stone homes

Bath re-enamelling in Lower Stone, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Questions from Lower Stone

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Repair or replace in Lower Stone?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Lower Stone

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Stone. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
