About our bath re-enamelling in Cummersdale
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Common questions in Cummersdale
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
Everywhere in the UK, Cummersdale included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace in Cummersdale?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
