Trusted bath re-enamelling in Rudheath Woods

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rudheath Woods

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and wear marks under the taps, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Rudheath Woods

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Rudheath Woods.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Landlord and trade work in Rudheath Woods

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rudheath Woods as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Repair or replace in Rudheath Woods?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common problems we fix in Rudheath Woods

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Rudheath Woods. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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