Bath re-enamelling near Stoborough Green

Bath re-enamelling in Stoborough Green, done in place

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 do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Stoborough Green

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Store bottles off the bath

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stoborough Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Stoborough Green clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Stoborough Green

What areas do you cover?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What we’re called out for in Stoborough Green

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

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 the part we put right.
