Need bath re-enamelling in Witton?

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

What we work on

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

About our bath re-enamelling in Witton

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Questions from Witton

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Landlord and trade work in Witton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why Witton customers choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour-matched on site

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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 frequently lifts.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
