Bath re-enamelling in Stewarton

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stewarton

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Stewarton

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Stewarton. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Stewarton

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Common reasons people in Stewarton contact us include:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long it needs to cure
