About our bath re-enamelling in Yorkley Slade

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Yorkley Slade

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Yorkley Slade?

We do. Technicians travel to Yorkley Slade from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
