How we handle bath re-enamelling in Barrow Island
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coating lifting around the plughole.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Barrow Island

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Barrow Island. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Barrow Island
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there 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 pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Barrow Island, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we are called out for in Barrow Island
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched

- What protection goes down before work starts
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
