How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wood End

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and worn patches where water runs and sits, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Wood End

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Wear marks under the taps

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Wood End: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
