Bath re-enamelling for Whittlebury homes

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Whittlebury

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whittlebury use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Whittlebury

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Stains that will not shift

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

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

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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