Common questions in Byers Green
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across County Durham.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Byers Green?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Bath re-enamelling in Byers Green, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Other services in Byers Green
Landlord and trade work in Byers Green
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Byers Green
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
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 pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most customers in Byers Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
