Questions from Upper Stanton Drew

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of Bath and North East Somerset?

All of Bath and North East Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Upper Stanton Drew

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a coating lifting around the plughole, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Have chips seen to early

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

What we’re called out for in Upper Stanton Drew

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Stanton Drew use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Upper Stanton Drew

  • Acrylic baths

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BS39 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
