Bath re-enamelling in Staddlethorpe without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Staddlethorpe

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

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

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Staddlethorpe

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Staddlethorpe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Staddlethorpe questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you come to Staddlethorpe?

We do. We send a technician to Staddlethorpe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
