Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blackburn
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Blackburn, 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. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Work done at your home or business

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
What affects the price in Blackburn
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Blackburn. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

What we are called out for in Blackburn
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
