Bath re-enamelling in Shurdington

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your GL51 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

About our bath re-enamelling in Shurdington

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shurdington as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Shurdington questions

Will you leave a mess?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Are there extra charges for Shurdington?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you come to Shurdington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Shurdington and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

What we are called out for in Shurdington

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Shurdington

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
