Landlord and trade work in Farthinghoe

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Bath re-enamelling in Farthinghoe without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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 until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

What affects the price in Farthinghoe

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Farthinghoe. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Farthinghoe

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Comparing quotes

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Farthinghoe questions

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.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
