Landlord and trade work in Danesford

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

For anyone letting property in or around Danesford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

Questions from Danesford

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

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.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Common problems we fix in Danesford

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What affects the price in Danesford

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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