Bath re-enamelling in Snow Hill

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Snow Hill

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and staining under the taps and around the waste, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Snow Hill

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Common problems we fix in Snow Hill

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Snow Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
