Bath re-enamelling in Shirenewton

FAQs for Shirenewton

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Bath re-enamelling in Shirenewton, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

What affects the price in Shirenewton

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Shirenewton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Shirenewton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
