DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

About our bath re-enamelling in Milton

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Milton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

When to call us in Milton

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Look out for these signs:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Wear marks under the taps

Our hiring checklist

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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 most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

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