When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Mewith Head

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

What we are called out for in Mewith Head

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Mewith Head clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from Mewith Head

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Mewith Head.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mewith Head use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Mewith Head. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
