Bath re-enamelling in Peel Common

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Peel Common

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Repairing versus replacing in Peel Common

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Peel Common

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Peel Common: your questions answered

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
