Bath re-enamelling in Tower Hill, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tower Hill

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When to call us in Tower Hill

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tower Hill. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Tower Hill

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
