When to call us in Old Perton

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Old Perton

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Old Perton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Old Perton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Old Perton questions

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
