Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Monks Heath

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you work in Monks Heath?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Monks Heath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Monks Heath. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Monks Heath

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Monks Heath

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
