Common questions in Gellyburn

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

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

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

What affects the price in Gellyburn

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gellyburn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What we’re called out for in Gellyburn

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. 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 price.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Gellyburn

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Gellyburn clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
