Bath re-enamelling in Westwood Heath

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Westwood Heath

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Westwood Heath questions

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Westwood Heath?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface 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.
