Bath re-enamelling for Spaxton homes

Bath re-enamelling in Spaxton without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Spaxton

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Spaxton?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How long is the bath unusable?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Spaxton

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 price the job.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Spaxton?

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Before booking anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
