Bath re-enamelling at your home in Westoning

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Westoning?

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

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairing versus replacing in Westoning

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Westoning: your questions answered

Do you cover Westoning?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westoning and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Westoning

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Westoning get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westoning as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
