Bath re-enamelling at your home in Westhorpe

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Westhorpe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

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

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Westhorpe

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long will the bath be out of use?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
