Bath re-enamelling in Stanley

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Stanley

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, so we don’t cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for worn patches where water runs and sits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

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

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

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.

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Stanley

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Nottinghamshire.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you work in Stanley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stanley and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Stanley?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
