Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

About our bath re-enamelling in Rockbourne

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Landlord and trade work in Rockbourne

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rockbourne as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

FAQs for Rockbourne

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Rockbourne. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
