Bath re-enamelling in Maythorne, done in place

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, we can generally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Maythorne

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maythorne use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Maythorne clients choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Maythorne: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Maythorne and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you cover Maythorne?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Maythorne and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

When to call us in Maythorne

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Maythorne

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
