Repair or replace in Rednal?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: 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 it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Questions from Rednal

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Shropshire.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Rednal

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Rednal

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Rednal. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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