Advice
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oakridge Lynch
If you manage property in Oakridge Lynch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Oakridge Lynch, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Common problems we fix in Oakridge Lynch
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oakridge Lynch. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Oakridge Lynch
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Oakridge Lynch?
We do. Technicians travel to Oakridge Lynch from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
