Bath re-enamelling near Milton Heights

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Milton Heights

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Milton Heights. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Milton Heights questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Never use suction bath mats

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Milton Heights. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Repairs by material

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 what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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