Bath re-enamelling in Three Bridges without replacing anything

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and stains that won’t shift, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

FAQs for Three Bridges

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Common problems we fix in Three Bridges

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
