Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Monnington on Wye

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common problems we fix in Monnington on Wye

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

What affects the price in Monnington on Wye

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Monnington on Wye, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

What we work on

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

FAQs for Monnington on Wye

Is it messy?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Monnington on Wye. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
