Bath re-enamelling in Rowly without replacing anything

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and wear marks under the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

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

Materials we work on in Rowly

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

What affects the price in Rowly

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rowly. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rowly. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

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

Questions from Rowly

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Rowly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Rowly?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
