Bath re-enamelling in Pitshanger without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we are called out for in Pitshanger

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Pitshanger

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pitshanger. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Pitshanger, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
