What affects the price in Nuthurst

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Nuthurst, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Nuthurst questions

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Materials we work on in Nuthurst

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Common problems we fix in Nuthurst

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
