Bath re-enamelling near West Lavington

Bath re-enamelling at your home in West Lavington

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

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

Common questions in West Lavington

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in West Lavington?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Most clients in West Lavington get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in West Lavington

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in West Lavington?

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
