Bath re-enamelling in Westborough, done in place

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can usually put it right, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

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

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Westborough

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Westborough

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Westborough.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Westborough. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Advice

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

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.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
