Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What affects the price in Pode Hole

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Pode Hole. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Pode Hole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Common questions in Pode Hole

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

Across the UK, so Pode Hole is covered. Prices do not change with location.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you cover Pode Hole?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Pode Hole from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
