Bath re-enamelling near Mullion Cove

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Mullion Cove

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Mullion Cove

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Mullion Cove?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Mullion Cove from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
