Trusted bath re-enamelling in Blyth

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

About our bath re-enamelling in Blyth

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, we can typically put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Blyth and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What affects the price in Blyth

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Blyth. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Blyth

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your S81 postcode.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
