Bath re-enamelling near Newmarket

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newmarket

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Have chips seen to early

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Newmarket. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newmarket. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Newmarket customers choose us

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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