Bath re-enamelling in Moggerhanger, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

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

What affects the price in Moggerhanger

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Moggerhanger

Will the bath be moved?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Bedford Borough?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Are there extra charges for Moggerhanger?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

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