Repair or replace in Wall End?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wall End

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can typically put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wall End as everywhere else we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wall End. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LA17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Wall End questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

How do I book?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
