Bath re-enamelling in Marshchapel without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and chips and rust in more than one place, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marshchapel

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marshchapel as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

FAQs for Marshchapel

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Marshchapel

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
