FAQs for Tongue End
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Tongue End. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Repairs by material
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’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Repair dripping taps early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

What we’re called out for in Tongue End
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
What affects the price in Tongue End
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
