About our bath re-enamelling in The Heath

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

The Heath questions

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

What affects the price in The Heath

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for The Heath. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we are called out for in The Heath

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered 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 sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Landlord and trade work in The Heath

For anyone letting property in or around The Heath, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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