Need bath re-enamelling in Roybridge?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

About our bath re-enamelling in Roybridge

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Roybridge

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

For anyone letting property in or around Roybridge, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

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 what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Questions from Roybridge

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the whole UK
