Bath re-enamelling for Northville homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Northville

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Questions from Northville

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

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

Do you cover Northville?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Northville. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

When to call us in Northville

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Northville. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath

If you’re in Northville and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
