Common questions in Weoley Castle

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will it make a mess?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Bath re-enamelling in Weoley Castle without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and lots of chips and rust spots, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. 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 generally the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Weoley Castle use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Weoley Castle

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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