Bath re-enamelling at your home in Over Haddon

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Over Haddon

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Over Haddon use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Over Haddon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t 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.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Over Haddon questions

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
