Bath re-enamelling at your home in Sutton Mandeville

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Why repair rather than replace?

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 are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sutton Mandeville. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Sutton Mandeville questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

What affects the price in Sutton Mandeville

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

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

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

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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

Materials we work on in Sutton Mandeville

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

What we’re called out for in Sutton Mandeville

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton Mandeville

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sutton Mandeville as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

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.
