Bath re-enamelling near Sinkhurst Green

About our bath re-enamelling in Sinkhurst Green

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re often asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Sinkhurst Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

The process

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

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sinkhurst Green

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.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Sinkhurst Green?

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sinkhurst Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sinkhurst Green
