Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Bath re-enamelling in Swineshead, done in place

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Swineshead

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swineshead as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repairing versus replacing in Swineshead

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Swineshead: your questions answered

Do you cover Swineshead?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Swineshead. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Swineshead. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
