Binscombe questions

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What affects the price in Binscombe

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Most customers in Binscombe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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 to keep costs down.

What we’re called out for in Binscombe

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
