Trusted bath re-enamelling in Royds Green

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Bath re-enamelling in Royds Green, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Royds Green

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

What we are called out for in Royds Green

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Stains that won’t shift

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Royds Green?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
