How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sibbertoft

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sibbertoft. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Sibbertoft customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Sibbertoft. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sibbertoft, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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 usually cheaper.

Sibbertoft: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Sibbertoft?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will there be fumes?

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

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

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
