Bath re-enamelling in Middleton, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Middleton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Middleton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Middleton and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
