Common questions in Welborne

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

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

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Welborne?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NR20 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Repair or replace in Welborne?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Common problems we fix in Welborne

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for these signs:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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 normally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

If you’re in Welborne and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Store bottles off the bath

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Welborne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
