Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure 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.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Boothby Graffoe?

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Boothby Graffoe

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Boothby Graffoe. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

For a price in Boothby Graffoe, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace in Boothby Graffoe?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Boothby Graffoe clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs

Boothby Graffoe questions

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.

  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
