Bath re-enamelling at your home in Totley Brook

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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 generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your S17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Totley Brook

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from Totley Brook

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your S17 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you cover Totley Brook?

We do. We send a technician to Totley Brook for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

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.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
