What affects the price in Woodhouse Eaves

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woodhouse Eaves. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Woodhouse Eaves

  • Cast iron baths

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Common problems we fix in Woodhouse Eaves

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
