  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Bath re-enamelling in Sausthorpe without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and several chips and rust patches, we can usually put it right, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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 several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Sausthorpe

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Sausthorpe

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Questions from Sausthorpe

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What we are called out for in Sausthorpe

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
