Common questions in Hawthorn Hill

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hawthorn Hill?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Common reasons people in Hawthorn Hill contact us include:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawthorn Hill

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
