How we handle bath re-enamelling in Tilney cum Islington

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and thin, worn enamel in places, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

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

Landlord and trade work in Tilney cum Islington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Tilney cum Islington

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats

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

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
