Bath re-enamelling near West Rudham

Bath re-enamelling in West Rudham, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

West Rudham questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are there extra charges for West Rudham?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in West Rudham?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
