Bath re-enamelling in Sheldon Corner, done in place

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Sheldon Corner

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Sheldon Corner. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

We do not add 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 pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Sheldon Corner, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Sheldon Corner: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is there a smell?

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

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Sheldon Corner?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SN14 postcode.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we are called out for in Sheldon Corner

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

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

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Repair or replace in Sheldon Corner?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
