Bath re-enamelling in Narborough, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include staining under the taps and around the waste and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

Questions from Narborough

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Narborough?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How long is the bath unusable?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Narborough. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Narborough get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Narborough

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
