Bath re-enamelling for Sharneyford homes

Questions from Sharneyford

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sharneyford

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in Sharneyford

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath

Most customers in Sharneyford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Sharneyford?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Store bottles off the bath

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

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 will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
