Bath re-enamelling near Ludborough

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ludborough

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ludborough. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ludborough, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common questions in Ludborough

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Are there extra charges for Ludborough?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Repair or replace in Ludborough?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
