Bath re-enamelling in Upton Grey

About our bath re-enamelling in Upton Grey

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upton Grey

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upton Grey. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upton Grey

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually.
