Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newland

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and thin, worn enamel in places.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Have chips seen to early

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

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 is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Newland questions

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is there a smell?

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

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

Landlord and trade work in Newland

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
