Bath re-enamelling for Meadowbank homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Meadowbank

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Meadowbank and across Cheshire West and Chester.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Common questions in Meadowbank

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is there a smell?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Meadowbank

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

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
