When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Friskney

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Never use suction bath mats

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.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

FAQs for Friskney

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

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

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
