Bath re-enamelling for Slinfold homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Slinfold

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Slinfold customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Common questions in Slinfold

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Slinfold. Prices don’t change with location.

What affects the price in Slinfold

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Slinfold?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Look out for these signs:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Wear marks under the taps

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
