Bath re-enamelling near North Nibley

Bath re-enamelling in North Nibley without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for North Nibley

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including North Nibley and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Nibley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Nibley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in North Nibley

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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.
