How we handle bath re-enamelling in Temple Normanton

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Temple Normanton

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Temple Normanton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Temple Normanton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What happens on the day

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 generally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Temple Normanton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Temple Normanton?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
