Bath re-enamelling in Nythe

About our bath re-enamelling in Nythe

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should you replace it?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Nythe

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you come to Nythe?

We do. Technicians travel to Nythe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Repair dripping taps early

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Nythe. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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 quote without visiting.
