Bath re-enamelling for Whinmoor homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Whinmoor

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Whinmoor and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Common questions in Whinmoor

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

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.

How soon can you come?

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

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Do you work in Whinmoor?

We do. Technicians travel to Whinmoor from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Whinmoor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One price list for the whole UK

What we are called out for in Whinmoor

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

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