Bath re-enamelling for Saxlingham Green homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Saxlingham Green

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Saxlingham Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Common questions in Saxlingham Green

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Should you replace it?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Saxlingham Green

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

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

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
