Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Wheaton Aston. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wheaton Aston

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

When to call us in Wheaton Aston

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
