Need bath re-enamelling in Old Netley?

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have 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 tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Bath re-enamelling in Old Netley without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Questions from Old Netley

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything

Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Netley

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Netley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

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

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Old Netley, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
