Methlick: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you work in Methlick?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Methlick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Methlick?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Methlick

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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

Materials we work on in Methlick

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK

Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Methlick

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

When to call us in Methlick

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
