Bath re-enamelling near Sutton St Nicholas

Bath re-enamelling in Sutton St Nicholas, done in place

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Herefordshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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