Bath Re-enamelling for South Yardley homes
Problem with your bath in South Yardley? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in South Yardley
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham.

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from South Yardley
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in South Yardley
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
