Bath re-enamelling for Tadwick homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tadwick

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and thin, worn enamel in places, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tadwick

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tadwick?

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

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.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

What affects the price in Tadwick

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Tadwick. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Tadwick: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Tadwick.

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

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price
