Bath re-enamelling in Wigtoft

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wigtoft

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 Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wigtoft

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wigtoft, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Wigtoft

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

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

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Wigtoft: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
