Bath re-enamelling at your home in Darlton
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

- Chips and rust in more than one place

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
