Bath re-enamelling in Strawberry Hill

FAQs for Strawberry Hill

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

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

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Will it make a mess?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Strawberry Hill

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white, we can normally put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Strawberry Hill

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
