Bath re-enamelling in Mayfield

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Mayfield

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Mayfield, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Mayfield?

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Mayfield

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Mayfield

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
