Book bath re-enamelling in Raithby by Spilsby

What affects the price in Raithby by Spilsby

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Raithby by Spilsby

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps, we can help, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Raithby by Spilsby as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Raithby by Spilsby

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Raithby by Spilsby?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can I add another job to the visit?

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Landlord and trade work in Raithby by Spilsby

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Raithby by Spilsby

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Raithby by Spilsby

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

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