What affects the price in Little Hadham

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Little Hadham. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Little Hadham

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

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 is the part we put right.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  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 us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Common problems we fix in Little Hadham

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Little Hadham questions

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is my repair covered?

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

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Repair dripping taps early

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Landlord and trade work in Little Hadham

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

If you manage property in Little Hadham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
