How we handle bath re-enamelling in Corney
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK
- A fixed quote before booking
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Landlord and trade work in Corney
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Corney use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Common questions in Corney
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Corney?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Corney for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we’re called out for in Corney
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book

- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
