Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

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

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we are called out for in Killingbeck

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Several chips and rust patches

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Killingbeck: your questions answered

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you cover Killingbeck?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Killingbeck and the rest of Leeds. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
