Bath re-enamelling near Monymusk

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Monymusk

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Monymusk

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When to call us in Monymusk

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions from Monymusk

How quickly can you book me in?

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?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monymusk use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
