How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pleck

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Pleck: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Pleck included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pleck.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pleck. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DT10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pleck use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
