How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Plaistow Green

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  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 until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Plaistow Green questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover the whole of Windsor and Maidenhead?

The entire UK, including all of Windsor and Maidenhead. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Plaistow Green customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Repair dripping taps early

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Common problems we fix in Plaistow Green

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
