About our bath re-enamelling in Wayford

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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

Should you replace it?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Wayford questions

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Wayford?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA18 postcode.

Do you come to Wayford?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Wayford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Wayford

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice

Landlord and trade work in Wayford

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re 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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
