About our bath re-enamelling in Mossend

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and chips and rust in more than one place, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Mossend

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Mossend

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Mossend, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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 often lifts.

Repair or replace in Mossend?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Questions from Mossend

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ML4 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

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

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

Do you work in Mossend?

We do. We send a technician to Mossend for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
