Bath re-enamelling in Northwick, done in place

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and wear marks under the taps, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Northwick

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

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Northwick. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

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

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Northwick: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Northwick?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Northwick?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Northwick and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Northwick?

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
