Bath re-enamelling for Newton homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newton

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Newton and across Warwickshire.

What we are called out for in Newton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that won’t shift

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Have chips seen to early

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Newton questions

How long does re-enamelling take?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

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 what we repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
