All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oldham.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Common questions in Top o' th' Meadows

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

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.

What affects the price in Top o' th' Meadows

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Top o' th' Meadows get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Top o' th' Meadows?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
