Common problems we fix in Balkholme
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift

About our bath re-enamelling in Balkholme
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
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 pictures.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Balkholme
For anyone letting property in or around Balkholme, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Balkholme. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Common questions in Balkholme
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Most clients in Balkholme get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Balkholme
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
