Bath re-enamelling near Ludney

Bath re-enamelling in Ludney, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and several chips and rust patches, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Ludney

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Ludney: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Ludney?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LN11 postcode.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
