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 pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

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.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Casterton

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Great Casterton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Great Casterton

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
