Bath re-enamelling in Worlaby without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Lincolnshire.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Worlaby?

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Worlaby

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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