Book bath re-enamelling in Turvey

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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

Materials we repair

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

Bath re-enamelling in Turvey without replacing anything

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. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Turvey and across Bedford Borough.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Turvey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Turvey: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Turvey?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Turvey for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Turvey use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Turvey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we are called out for in Turvey

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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