What affects the price in Foveran

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Foveran. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Foveran, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

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
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. 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. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
