The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Boothsdale

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Boothsdale

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Boothsdale questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we repair

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