Trusted bath re-enamelling in Newenden

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newenden

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlord and trade work in Newenden

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

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

What we are called out for in Newenden

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Newenden

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Questions from Newenden

Are there extra charges for Newenden?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work in Newenden?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Newenden. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

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.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that is rusted through

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