Bath re-enamelling in Spaldwick

Bath re-enamelling in Spaldwick, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Spaldwick

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE28 postcode.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

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 is what we repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Spaldwick?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
