What affects the price in Preesall

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Preesall and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Preesall

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we are called out for in Preesall

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

Common reasons people in Preesall contact us include:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Materials we work on in Preesall

  • Cast iron enamel

Should you replace it?

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

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
