Bath re-enamelling for Marford homes

When to call us in Marford

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Marford

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Marford

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repairing versus replacing in Marford

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Marford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Advice

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Honest limits

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

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
