Bath re-enamelling for Stanley Green homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Stanley Green

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 regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

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

Stanley Green: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Stanley Green.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stanley Green

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How the visit 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 any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Stanley Green?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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. We charge the same across the UK, including Stanley Green. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
