Bath re-enamelling in Tollerton without replacing anything

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tollerton and across Nottinghamshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What we are called out for in Tollerton

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Materials we work on in Tollerton

What affects the price in Tollerton

Tollerton: your questions answered

How long is the bath unusable?

Which areas do you work in?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Tollerton?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NG12 postcode.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Repair or replace in Tollerton?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Tollerton customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
