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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath re-enamelling in Worthington without replacing anything

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Worthington. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Worthington, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Worthington

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Worthington

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Common problems we fix in Worthington

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before booking anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Worthington?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on
