Common problems we fix in Park Street

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Park Street

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

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

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Common questions in Park Street

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

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

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
