Trusted bath re-enamelling in Tingewick

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Bath re-enamelling in Tingewick, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Questions from Tingewick

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlord and trade work in Tingewick

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Tingewick, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Tingewick

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Tingewick get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
