Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Little Steeping questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

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’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Little Steeping included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Steeping. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally 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 prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common problems we fix in Little Steeping

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Several chips and rust patches
