Bath re-enamelling for Upper Wick homes

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

About our bath re-enamelling in Upper Wick

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Upper Wick questions

Do you work in Upper Wick?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Wick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

All of Worcestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Upper Wick

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Look out for these signs:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
