Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wing

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Wing: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How soon can you come?

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Aftercare tips

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

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wing use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
