Bath re-enamelling in Wierton

Common problems we fix in Wierton

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

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

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Bath re-enamelling in Wierton, done in place

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wierton

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How long will the bath be out of use?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wierton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
