Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Landlord and trade work in Low Beechburn
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Low Beechburn use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Low Beechburn, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we’re called out for in Low Beechburn
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Low Beechburn questions
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Low Beechburn, and we will reply with a fixed price.
