Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Warwickshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Aftercare tips

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

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

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Long Itchington

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

Can I fix it myself?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common questions in Long Itchington

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

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

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

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Should you replace it?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

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.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
