The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Woodcote Green: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Landlord and trade work in Woodcote Green

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

If you manage property in Woodcote Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Woodcote Green. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price
