Bath re-enamelling for Rowner homes

Common questions in Rowner

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Are there extra charges for Rowner?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rowner

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and thin, worn enamel in places.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Rowner

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rowner as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rowner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
