Bath re-enamelling in Walgherton, done in place

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and stains that won’t shift, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Common problems we fix in Walgherton

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing in Walgherton

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walgherton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

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

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
