What affects the price in The Square

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in The Square

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in The Square

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in The Square.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. We do not add 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.
