Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

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

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tholomas Drove

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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 prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Tholomas Drove

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
