Bath re-enamelling near Tremar Coombe

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

About our bath re-enamelling in Tremar Coombe

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A bath split right through the body
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Tremar Coombe

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our full price list or bath cost comparison.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

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

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Tremar Coombe

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlord and trade work in Tremar Coombe

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Questions from Tremar Coombe

Do you cover Tremar Coombe?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
