Bath re-enamelling near Upper Dallachy

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Upper Dallachy

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 regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Upper Dallachy

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Upper Dallachy included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Upper Dallachy

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What affects the price in Upper Dallachy

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Upper Dallachy. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
