Bath re-enamelling near Screveton

Bath re-enamelling in Screveton without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Screveton. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Screveton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 check it carefully.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Common problems we fix in Screveton

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

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

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

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Screveton

How soon can you come?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
