Common questions in Pict's Hill

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Landlord and trade work in Pict's Hill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Pict's Hill. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Pict's Hill get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Repair dripping taps early

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

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

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
