Bath re-enamelling in South Bank

Should you replace it?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and staining under the taps and around the waste, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

Choosing a repair company

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including South Bank. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for South Bank. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

South Bank: your questions answered

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Bank

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Redcar and Cleveland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
