Bath re-enamelling for Plocrapool homes

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

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

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Plocrapool

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to compare quotes

Plocrapool questions

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

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Plocrapool

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
