Oundle questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I book?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Oundle

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Oundle. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oundle use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Oundle?

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Oundle

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
