About our bath re-enamelling in Sunnymead

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Sunnymead questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

Do you work in Sunnymead?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sunnymead. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Sunnymead included. There is no extra charge for travel.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Are you accredited?

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

Landlord and trade work in Sunnymead

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sunnymead

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

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.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Sunnymead?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
