Book bath re-enamelling in Stockwood

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Bath re-enamelling in Stockwood without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and stains that won’t shift.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stockwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Stockwood

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Stockwood is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

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.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

What we’re called out for in Stockwood

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

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

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
