FAQs for Rothersthorpe

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Rothersthorpe

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rothersthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common problems we fix in Rothersthorpe

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
