Need bath re-enamelling in Studdal?

For landlords and businesses

Bath re-enamelling in Studdal without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Studdal as everywhere else we work.

Studdal questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Studdal?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Studdal. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Studdal

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
