Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Tillington Common

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Tillington Common?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HR4 postcode.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tillington Common?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Common reasons people in Tillington Common contact us include:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tillington Common. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HR4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tillington Common

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tillington Common as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that’s rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
