Bath re-enamelling at your home in Woolston

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Woolston

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Should you replace it?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What affects the price in Woolston

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
