Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Abbeystead
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Abbeystead questions
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in Abbeystead?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Abbeystead?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

What affects the price in Abbeystead
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
