Bath re-enamelling in Wildhern

About our bath re-enamelling in Wildhern

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Wildhern and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Wildhern

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coloured bath you want in white

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Wildhern. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Wildhern questions

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Wildhern.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
