Choosing a repair company

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fletchertown

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about chips and rust in more than one place and wear marks under the taps.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fletchertown as everywhere else we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Fletchertown

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Fletchertown?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Fletchertown. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

Everywhere in the UK, Fletchertown included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Fletchertown?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Fletchertown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
