How we handle bath re-enamelling in Staffield

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Common questions in Staffield

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Staffield.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repair or replace in Staffield?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CA10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
