Bath re-enamelling for Ollersett homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Ollersett

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

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

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ollersett

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Common problems we fix in Ollersett

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ollersett

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Ollersett included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover Ollersett?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ollersett from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
