Bath re-enamelling for Middleton homes

What we’re called out for in Middleton

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Middleton

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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 until the next day.

How to prepare

  • 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

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Middleton questions

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Middleton

For anyone letting property in or around Middleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Middleton customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
