Bath re-enamelling in Oakgrove, done in place

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We are often asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Oakgrove and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oakgrove

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oakgrove as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Oakgrove?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Honest limits

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Questions from Oakgrove

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Are there extra charges for Oakgrove?

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common problems we fix in Oakgrove

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
