Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Crick?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crick as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

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

FAQs for Crick

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Crick?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NN6 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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