Bath re-enamelling near Towie

Bath re-enamelling in Towie without replacing anything

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and wear marks under the taps, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Towie

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Several chips and rust patches

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Landlord and trade work in Towie

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Towie

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your AB33 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Towie questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What happens after I send photos?

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

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do I need to be at home?

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
