Streethay: your questions answered

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.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Streethay included. Travel is included in the price.

Are there extra charges for Streethay?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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.

Do you cover Streethay?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Streethay from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When to call us in Streethay

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Streethay use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Streethay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

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

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Streethay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Streethay

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
