The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bednall Head. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bednall Head

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Our hiring checklist

Common questions in Bednall Head

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Bednall Head?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ST17 postcode.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

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

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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