Frithsden questions
Do you cover Frithsden?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Frithsden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Frithsden?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Frithsden
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Frithsden and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
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 the part we put right.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Frithsden

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
