Bath re-enamelling in Peatling Parva, done in place

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Peatling Parva. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day.

  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. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peatling Parva

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Peatling Parva use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Peatling Parva

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs

Questions from Peatling Parva

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

When to call us in Peatling Parva

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Common reasons people in Peatling Parva contact us are:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
