About our bath re-enamelling in Sharpness

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and thin, worn enamel in places, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common problems we fix in Sharpness

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Common questions in Sharpness

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work in Sharpness?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sharpness and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

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

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Sharpness

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
