Trusted bath re-enamelling in Offwell

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Offwell

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and staining under the taps and around the waste.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Questions from Offwell

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Offwell?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Offwell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Offwell?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX14 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

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 the same day in most cases.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Offwell

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Offwell

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Offwell as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Offwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
