Repair or replace in Westborough?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Westborough

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Westborough. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Westborough

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Westborough. Our prices are the same everywhere.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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

What we work on

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Westborough?

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
