Thornton-le-Beans: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Thornton-le-Beans?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Landlord and trade work in Thornton-le-Beans
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Thornton-le-Beans, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
