Bath re-enamelling for Summerleaze homes

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Summerleaze

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Summerleaze

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Have chips seen to early

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

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

When to call us in Summerleaze

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Summerleaze

Will the new finish last?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Summerleaze?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
