FAQs for Minety

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

When can you do it?

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

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

About our bath re-enamelling in Minety

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Minety, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SN16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Minety

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A coloured bath you want in white

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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