Bath re-enamelling in Bispham without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and stains that won’t shift, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bispham and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

What else we do in Bispham
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Bispham questions
Are there extra charges for Bispham?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What we are called out for in Bispham
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Bispham. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
