Bath re-enamelling in Whitbourne

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

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

Materials we work on in Whitbourne

Bath re-enamelling in Whitbourne, done in place

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Whitbourne?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Common questions in Whitbourne

Do you work in Whitbourne?

We do. We send a technician to Whitbourne for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can landlords book you?

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

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Whitbourne?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
