Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lyne Down

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What affects the price in Lyne Down

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Store bottles off the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Questions from Lyne Down

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Are there extra charges for Lyne Down?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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