Bath re-enamelling near Pogmoor

Common questions in Pogmoor

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Bath re-enamelling in Pogmoor without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and wear marks under the taps.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pogmoor. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Wear marks under the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
