About our bath re-enamelling in Up Holland

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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 if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for 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 whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Up Holland use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Up Holland?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Repair dripping taps early

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Up Holland. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WN8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repairing versus replacing in Up Holland

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. 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.
