FAQs for Upavon

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you come to Upavon?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Upavon. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Upavon

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What affects the price in Upavon

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Upavon. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

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

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What we’re called out for in Upavon

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
