Parnwell questions

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Parnwell?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Parnwell is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Bath re-enamelling in Parnwell, done in place

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and stains that won’t shift, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Parnwell

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Parnwell?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Parnwell

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Parnwell. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Parnwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Parnwell?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
