Landlord and trade work in Walton on the Hill

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  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 generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KT20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

When to call us in Walton on the Hill

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Walton on the Hill questions

How long is the bath unusable?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

Everywhere in the UK, Walton on the Hill included. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Do you work in Walton on the Hill?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Walton on the Hill and the rest of Surrey. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
