Bath re-enamelling for Pipe Aston homes

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

About our bath re-enamelling in Pipe Aston

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What affects the price in Pipe Aston

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

When to call us in Pipe Aston

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for these signs:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

FAQs for Pipe Aston

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Does the bath have to be removed?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
