How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Advice

Bath re-enamelling in Strabane without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and stains that won’t shift.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Strabane: your questions answered

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Fix dripping taps quickly
Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Strabane as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Strabane and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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 isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
