When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

What we work on

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

How we handle bath re-enamelling in West Wickham

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We are often asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire.

What affects the price in West Wickham

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

If you manage property in West Wickham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Questions from West Wickham

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

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. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
