Bath re-enamelling for New Invention homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in New Invention

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We’re often asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

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

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Invention

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in New Invention?

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in New Invention get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Have chips seen to early
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
