Common questions in Stanley Gate

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lancashire.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Stanley Gate?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Stanley Gate

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Stanley Gate. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What we are called out for in Stanley Gate

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
