Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Dunston, Staffordshire
Bath re-enamelling in Dunston without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dunston
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Dunston
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repairing versus replacing in Dunston
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No need to remove anything

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Dunston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What affects the price in Dunston
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s 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 will reply with a fixed price.
