When to call us in Fosdyke Bridge

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

Fosdyke Bridge: your questions answered

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Repair or replace in Fosdyke Bridge?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
