Bath re-enamelling near The Hook

How we handle bath re-enamelling in The Hook

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that is rusted through

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. 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.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Questions from The Hook

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do you charge for travel?

Can you change the colour of my bath?

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

What do you need from me?

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

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in The Hook?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in The Hook?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Common reasons people in The Hook contact us are:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
