About our bath re-enamelling in Annitsford

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Annitsford and across Northumberland.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Annitsford?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

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

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

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

Annitsford: your questions answered

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Annitsford

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
