About our bath re-enamelling in Upper Marlbrook

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

FAQs for Upper Marlbrook

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

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 the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we’re called out for in Upper Marlbrook

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Stains that will not shift

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Marlbrook. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Upper Marlbrook and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
