Bath Re-enamelling in Crossgill
Local bath re-enamelling for Crossgill: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Crossgill
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Crossgill
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LA2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Crossgill questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crossgill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace in Crossgill?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
