DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically 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.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Landlord and trade work in Church Hanborough

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Church Hanborough

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
