About our bath re-enamelling in Ramsnest Common

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common questions in Ramsnest Common

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work in Ramsnest Common?

We do. We send a technician to Ramsnest Common for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Common problems we fix in Ramsnest Common

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Ramsnest Common clients choose us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
