What affects the price in Chipnall

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Chipnall. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Bath re-enamelling in Chipnall, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chipnall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Common questions in Chipnall

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Chipnall?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Chipnall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
