Bath re-enamelling near Upper Weald

Bath re-enamelling in Upper Weald without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

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

Questions from Upper Weald

How do I book?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Upper Weald

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
