Need bath re-enamelling in Ten Mile Bank?

Ten Mile Bank: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How soon can you come?

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Bath re-enamelling in Ten Mile Bank, done in place

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. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

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 day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ten Mile Bank

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Ten Mile Bank get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
