When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Douglas Water

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Douglas Water. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What else we do in Douglas Water
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Douglas Water
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before you book anyone

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
