Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

About our bath re-enamelling in Gonalston

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Gonalston

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Gonalston

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Gonalston?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Landlord and trade work in Gonalston

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Gonalston. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gonalston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NG14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Honest limits

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

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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