Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Bath re-enamelling in South Earlswood, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

South Earlswood: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Do you come to South Earlswood?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to South Earlswood and the rest of Surrey. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in South Earlswood?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
