Bath re-enamelling at your home in Weston-on-Trent

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, 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 are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in Weston-on-Trent

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DE72 postcode.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Weston-on-Trent

If you manage property in Weston-on-Trent, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

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 quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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