Common questions in Anchorsholme
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Anchorsholme
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and lots of chips and rust spots, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Anchorsholme
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your FY5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Anchorsholme. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
