Need bath re-enamelling in Rame Cross?

Common problems we fix in Rame Cross

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rame Cross

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rame Cross

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Rame Cross

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Rame Cross?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Rame Cross. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

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.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
