About our bath re-enamelling in Monks Risborough

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.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Monks Risborough: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Monks Risborough and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work in Monks Risborough?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Monks Risborough and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Materials we work on in Monks Risborough

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
