Bath re-enamelling in Newstreet Lane, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Newstreet Lane

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Wear marks under the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Landlord and trade work in Newstreet Lane

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Newstreet Lane: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

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

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

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

Will the price change on the day?

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

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What affects the price in Newstreet Lane

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Newstreet Lane. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
