Bath re-enamelling near Southrop

Bath re-enamelling in Southrop, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Southrop, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Southrop?

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Southrop

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Southrop

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Gloucestershire.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
