How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Upper Wraxall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Landlord and trade work in Upper Wraxall

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upper Wraxall

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out.

What information do you need?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Upper Wraxall?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Never use suction bath mats

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.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
