About our bath re-enamelling in Easington Colliery
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 a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Easington Colliery
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover Easington Colliery?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Easington Colliery. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
