Trusted bath re-enamelling in Wyken

Bath re-enamelling in Wyken without replacing anything

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you are dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Wyken: your questions answered

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

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

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we work on in Wyken

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wyken?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Wyken. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
