Bath re-enamelling for Newton homes

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Bath re-enamelling in Newton without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Newton

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newton. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Newton

Are there extra charges for Newton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you come to Newton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

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

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
