How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Little Billing

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Little Billing

Do you work in Little Billing?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Little Billing and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
