  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Penton Grafton

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and stains that won’t shift, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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 day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Repair dripping taps early

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Will the price change on the day?

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Penton Grafton?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penton Grafton. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Penton Grafton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Penton Grafton?

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
