Bath re-enamelling at your home in Peaks Hill

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can normally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Peaks Hill and across Greater London.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the 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. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

When to call us in Peaks Hill

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Have chips seen to early

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
