How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common problems we fix in Wickhampton

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Wickhampton customers choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Materials we work on in Wickhampton

  • Cast iron baths

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wickhampton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Questions from Wickhampton

How soon can you come?

Which areas do you work in?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What information do you need?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.

Do you cover Wickhampton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wickhampton and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

What affects the price in Wickhampton

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
