How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wiggenhall St Mary the Virgin

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Wiggenhall St Mary the Virgin. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wiggenhall St Mary the Virgin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wiggenhall St Mary the Virgin, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  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.

Advice

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wiggenhall St Mary the Virgin?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
