Bath re-enamelling for Westhall homes

Bath re-enamelling in Westhall without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Common questions in Westhall

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Westhall?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

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