Questions from Easter Skeld

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across the Shetland Islands.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Easter Skeld. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath

For a price in Easter Skeld, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Easter Skeld

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Easter Skeld?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

When to call us in Easter Skeld

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

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.
