Bath re-enamelling in Rushock, done in place

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and wear marks under the taps.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rushock. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Rushock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

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

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found 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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Rushock: your questions answered

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are there extra charges for Rushock?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
