Need bath re-enamelling in Padgate?

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath re-enamelling in Padgate, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help.

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Padgate

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A coloured bath you want in white

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

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.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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 until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

FAQs for Padgate

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Do you cover the whole of Warrington?

Everywhere in the UK, Padgate included. Travel is included in the price.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Padgate?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Warrington.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What affects the price in Padgate

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
