How we handle bath re-enamelling in Overton

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Materials we work on in Overton

Repairing versus replacing in Overton

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Overton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Repair dripping taps early

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG25 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
