Bath re-enamelling in Wymondham without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Wymondham: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Wymondham

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Wymondham. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wymondham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
