Bath re-enamelling in The Tuckies

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

About our bath re-enamelling in The Tuckies

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and wear marks under the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for The Tuckies. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in The Tuckies

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Tuckies use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When to call us in The Tuckies

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
