Bath re-enamelling for Wharton homes

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Advice

About our bath re-enamelling in Wharton

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wharton

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wharton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Repair or replace in Wharton?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early

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

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