Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Bath re-enamelling in Wasps Nest without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wasps Nest, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Wasps Nest questions

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Are there extra charges for Wasps Nest?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wasps Nest

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Common reasons people in Wasps Nest contact us include:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
