Bath re-enamelling in Lucton

Bath re-enamelling in Lucton, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lucton and across Herefordshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Lucton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lucton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What we’re called out for in Lucton

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

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
