Bath re-enamelling for Pickering homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pickering

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 a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Pickering and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Pickering?

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

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

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

If you manage property in Pickering, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
