How we handle bath re-enamelling in Blackridge
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. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Blackridge, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Blackridge: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Common problems we fix in Blackridge
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.
Common reasons people in Blackridge contact us include:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Blackridge, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
