About our bath re-enamelling in Overton

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a 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. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Overton?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Overton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

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’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Most customers in Overton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

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

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

FAQs for Overton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Overton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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