Bath re-enamelling for Samlesbury Bottoms homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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

Bath re-enamelling in Samlesbury Bottoms without replacing anything

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. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Samlesbury Bottoms as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common questions in Samlesbury Bottoms

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath

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. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise 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.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
