Bath re-enamelling in Punnett's Town

Bath re-enamelling in Punnett's Town, done in place

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. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Punnett's Town

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Punnett's Town?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Honest limits

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

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Punnett's Town

  • Cast iron baths

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Punnett's Town as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Common questions in Punnett's Town

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Punnett's Town?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Punnett's Town. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
