What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Hunsingore

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

Bath re-enamelling in Hunsingore, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hunsingore as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hunsingore

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When to call us in Hunsingore

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Hunsingore questions

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
