How we handle bath re-enamelling in Murcott

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and thin, worn enamel in places, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Murcott as everywhere else we work.

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Murcott. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Murcott, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Common problems we fix in Murcott

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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 prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

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 the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Murcott

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

Common questions in Murcott

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Will there be fumes?

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

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
