Bath re-enamelling near Stainland

About our bath re-enamelling in Stainland

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and chips and rust in more than one place, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. 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 resurfacing gives them a new life.

Landlord and trade work in Stainland

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stainland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What we’re called out for in Stainland

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
