How we handle bath re-enamelling in Quidenham

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Quidenham

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes 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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Quidenham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
