Common questions in North Holmwood
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
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.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow most of the day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to North Holmwood. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
