About our bath re-enamelling in Mannings Heath

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, 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.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mannings Heath use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Mannings Heath?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Everything repaired in place

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Mannings Heath: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do you cover Mannings Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mannings Heath. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Mannings Heath

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Materials we work on in Mannings Heath

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
