Bath re-enamelling in Upton

Bath re-enamelling in Upton, done in place

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and staining under the taps and around the waste, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

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

When to call us in Upton

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

FAQs for Upton

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Will there be a smell?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Upton, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Upton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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