Bath re-enamelling for Mile End homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Mile End

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are frequently asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

What affects the price in Mile End

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that is rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Mile End

Will the bath be moved?

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

Do you work in Mile End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Mile End. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Mile End?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your GL16 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  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 generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

If you’re in Mile End and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Mile End?

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
