Questions from Mossgate

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you come to Mossgate?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mossgate and the rest of Staffordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Mossgate

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coloured bath you want in white and lots of chips and rust spots.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Mossgate. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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