Bath re-enamelling in Sepham Heath

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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 at your home in Sepham Heath

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 a roll-top that’s seen better days and stains that won’t shift, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What affects the price in Sepham Heath

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sepham Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Questions from Sepham Heath

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you cover Sepham Heath?

We do. We send a technician to Sepham Heath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Sepham Heath?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Will it make a mess?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Sepham Heath

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Our hiring checklist

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
