Bath re-enamelling at your home in Raunds

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. We’re frequently asked to fix stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we are called out for in Raunds

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Raunds: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Raunds and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Raunds?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Raunds for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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