Bath re-enamelling in Capheaton without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. We’re frequently asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Capheaton as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Capheaton: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Capheaton.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you cover Capheaton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Capheaton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
What we are called out for in Capheaton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An old resurfacing that is failing
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Advice

What else we do in Capheaton
What affects the price in Capheaton
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Capheaton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets 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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One visit for most repairs

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
