Trusted bath re-enamelling in Tunstall

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunstall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Tunstall

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repair or replace in Tunstall?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tunstall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How we price bath re-enamelling

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we are called out for in Tunstall

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
