Trusted bath re-enamelling in Birmingham

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Birmingham

It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about dull, rough enamel that won’t come clean and a previous resurfacing that is peeling.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham. Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Birmingham

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits. A rough surface traps dirt and stains easily, and cleaning only makes it worse.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Lots of chips across the bath
  • Dull, rough enamel that won’t come clean
  • A previous resurfacing that is peeling
  • Stains and limescale marks that are etched in

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while we work
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again

Common questions in Birmingham

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Birmingham?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.

Can landlords and businesses in Birmingham book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders, hotels and homeowners.

Do you protect the room?

We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and clean up before we leave.

How long will the bath be out of use?

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

Do you cover Birmingham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Birmingham and the rest of Birmingham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What guarantee do I get?

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

Should I repair or replace?

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

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

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.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
