Bath re-enamelling in Newton

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

Bath re-enamelling in Newton without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

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

What affects the price in Newton

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • 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.

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

What we’re called out for in Newton

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Newton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you come to Newton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Newton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Repair or replace in Newton?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
