Bath re-enamelling in Cumberland, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cumberland?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
FAQs for Cumberland
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Cumberland
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
