What we are called out for in Dickleburgh

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

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

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling in Dickleburgh without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Dickleburgh

Do you come to Dickleburgh?

We do. We send a technician to Dickleburgh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

How do I book?

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

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

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

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Repair or replace in Dickleburgh?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow most of the day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

If you manage property in Dickleburgh, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
