Bath re-enamelling for Middlewood homes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Middlewood. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Middlewood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Middlewood, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Middlewood

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in Middlewood

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

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do you come to Middlewood?

We do. Technicians travel to Middlewood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we’re called out for in Middlewood

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
