Bath re-enamelling for Westgate homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Bath re-enamelling in Westgate, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and stains that won’t shift, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Westgate

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Westgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What affects the price in Westgate

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Westgate. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
