Bath re-enamelling for South Clifton homes

Repair or replace in South Clifton?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Bath re-enamelling in South Clifton without replacing anything

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Repair dripping taps early

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in South Clifton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

FAQs for South Clifton

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including South Clifton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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 frequently lifts.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in South Clifton

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
