Bath re-enamelling near Winforton

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

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

Bath re-enamelling in Winforton, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole.

For a rural address like Winforton, we plan the journey and the visit in advance. Tell us about narrow lanes, long drives or parking, and we will take care of the rest.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a village or hamlet like Winforton, access can be the only tricky part. Once we are there, the bath re-enamelling works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common questions in Winforton

Is it worth repairing old baths in a period home in Winforton?

Typically: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. We will give you an honest view from photos.

Will you travel to Winforton?

Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.

Do you cover Winforton?

We do. Technicians travel to Winforton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you quote from photos?

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

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Landlord and trade work in Winforton

If you manage property in Winforton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
