Bath re-enamelling near Tibthorpe

Bath re-enamelling in Tibthorpe, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tibthorpe as everywhere else we work.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tibthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tibthorpe

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlord and trade work in Tibthorpe

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
