Bath re-enamelling near Tenbury Wells

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we repair

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

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we’re called out for in Tenbury Wells

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tenbury Wells. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Tenbury Wells. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

FAQs for Tenbury Wells

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
