Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Honest limits

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Materials we work on in Bampton

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Bampton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bampton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bampton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
