What we’re called out for in Temple Hirst

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Temple Hirst

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

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

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

What we work on

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

Questions from Temple Hirst

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Temple Hirst is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off 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 bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Most customers in Temple Hirst get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
