How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Goxhill

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Goxhill

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Goxhill. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Goxhill

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Common reasons people in Goxhill contact us are:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Common questions in Goxhill

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goxhill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
