About our bath re-enamelling in Over

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coloured bath you want in white.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Over and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When to call us in Over

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Over

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Over?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
