Bath re-enamelling for Staplers homes

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Bath re-enamelling in Staplers, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Staplers. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Staplers, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Staplers

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Staplers?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover Staplers?

We do. We send a technician to Staplers for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Staplers?

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Materials we repair

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