Bath re-enamelling near Scawby Brook

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Scawby Brook. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: 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.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Scawby Brook

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Scawby Brook as everywhere else we work.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scawby Brook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scawby Brook

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we are called out for in Scawby Brook

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Choosing a repair company

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow the best part of a day.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Have chips seen to early

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Scawby Brook

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.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

Do you come to Scawby Brook?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Scawby Brook for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

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