Prices and what affects them

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

About our bath re-enamelling in Ashurst

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are often asked to fix lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashurst

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we’re called out for in Ashurst

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Ashurst?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Ashurst clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
