What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Morland

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Morland questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Repairing versus replacing in Morland

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlord and trade work in Morland

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Morland get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take most of the day.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

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

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When to call us in Morland

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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 normally cheaper.
