About our bath re-enamelling in Salwick

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Salwick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salwick use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Salwick. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Salwick

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Salwick

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Salwick

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

What information do you need?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How long will the bath be out of use?

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

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

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