Bashley questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do I have to be there?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you come to Bashley?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bashley and the rest of Hampshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Landlord and trade work in Bashley

If you manage property in Bashley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Bashley

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Repairing versus replacing in Bashley

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
