Trusted bath re-enamelling in Stretton under Fosse

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Stretton under Fosse

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. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stretton under Fosse as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How long does re-enamelling last?

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

  • A bath split right through the body

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Materials we work on in Stretton under Fosse

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

  • Cast iron baths

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
