Landlords, agents and businesses in Shallcross
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common questions in Shallcross
Are there extra charges for Shallcross?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Shallcross?
We do. We send a technician to Shallcross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Shallcross

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Shallcross
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
