Bath re-enamelling in Moorends

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Moorends

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Moorends and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Moorends

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Moorends?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you

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. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we are called out for in Moorends

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
