Bath re-enamelling for Upper Sapey homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Upper Sapey

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and worn patches where water runs and sits, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Upper Sapey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upper Sapey

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that is rusted through

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