Bath re-enamelling in Thorpe Salvin, done in place

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Thorpe Salvin

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What affects the price in Thorpe Salvin

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Thorpe Salvin questions

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Thorpe Salvin?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your S80 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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