Bath re-enamelling in Walton-on-the-Hill

Bath re-enamelling in Walton-on-the-Hill, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walton-on-the-Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Walton-on-the-Hill

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Walton-on-the-Hill

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Walton-on-the-Hill. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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