Bath re-enamelling near Yatesbury

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Bath re-enamelling in Yatesbury, done in place

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Yatesbury, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Materials we work on in Yatesbury

Yatesbury questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

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

When can you do it?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When to call us in Yatesbury

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white

How to compare quotes

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Yatesbury. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Yatesbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
