Bath re-enamelling at your home in Rocester

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We are often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Rocester, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Repairing versus replacing in Rocester

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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’ll get a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Rocester

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Rocester questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Rocester included. There is no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
