FAQs for Wyllie

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NP12 postcode.

Bath re-enamelling in Wyllie without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and worn patches where water runs and sits, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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 on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wyllie

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Wyllie

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Wyllie clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
