Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Crankwood
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and wear marks under the taps, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What else we do in Crankwood
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crankwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the whole UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
