What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry

Bath re-enamelling in Cleator Moor without replacing anything

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cleator Moor?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Cleator Moor

Landlord and trade work in Cleator Moor

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cleator Moor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Cleator Moor customers choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
