Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common questions in Welsh Bicknor
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Do you cover the entire of Gloucestershire?
Across the UK, so Welsh Bicknor is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welsh Bicknor use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we are called out for in Welsh Bicknor
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
