Bath re-enamelling near Normanton

Bath re-enamelling in Normanton without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and thin, worn enamel in places.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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

What affects the price in Normanton

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Most clients in Normanton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Normanton customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Normanton: your questions answered

Can you make a coloured bath white?

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

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

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 is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

If you manage property in Normanton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
