Repair or replace: which is better?

Bath re-enamelling in Reedham, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Reedham: your questions answered

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Do you work in Reedham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Reedham. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Reedham?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Landlord and trade work in Reedham

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.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Reedham. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Reedham

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
