Bath re-enamelling for Necton homes

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Bath re-enamelling in Necton, done in place

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, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Necton

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Necton

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE37 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Necton

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Landlord and trade work in Necton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Necton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.
