Common questions in Cadeby

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Store bottles off the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

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

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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 book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cadeby

For anyone letting property in or around Cadeby, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cadeby, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
