Trusted bath re-enamelling in Nupend

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Nupend

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and several chips and rust patches.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Questions from Nupend

What information do you need?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Do you need to take the bath out?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Nupend

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Common reasons people in Nupend contact us are:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Nupend clients choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
