Throsk: your questions answered
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 do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Bath re-enamelling in Throsk without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Throsk
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Several chips and rust patches

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Throsk
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What else we do in Throsk
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why Throsk customers choose us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
