Bath re-enamelling in Queen's Hills, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Queen's Hills as everywhere else we work.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Materials we work on in Queen's Hills

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Queen's Hills

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairing versus replacing in Queen's Hills

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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.
