Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Spion Kop

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Look out for these signs:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that will not shift

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spion Kop as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Spion Kop

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Spion Kop clients choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

FAQs for Spion Kop

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 once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Are there extra charges for Spion Kop?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Spion Kop.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Spion Kop

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Spion Kop. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Spion Kop and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
