About our bath re-enamelling in Toll Bar

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can typically put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Toll Bar

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Toll Bar. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Toll Bar?

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

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

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
