About our bath re-enamelling in Middleton

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Middleton as everywhere else we work.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Middleton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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

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.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

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

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
