About our bath re-enamelling in Aglionby
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Common problems we fix in Aglionby
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aglionby questions
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
