Bath re-enamelling at your home in Old Woking

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Old Woking

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Old Woking

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Old Woking get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Old Woking: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

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.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
