How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pimperne

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 generally the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Pimperne

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Pimperne

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

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.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Pimperne?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
