Trusted bath re-enamelling in Mawdesley

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Mawdesley

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Mawdesley

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover Mawdesley?

We do. Technicians travel to Mawdesley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does the bath have to be removed?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

What do you need from me?

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mawdesley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What we’re called out for in Mawdesley

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.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Mawdesley

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
