About our bath re-enamelling in Minard

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

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’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Minard use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Minard

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Minard. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Minard customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Minard, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
