Bath re-enamelling in Easington without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and thin, worn enamel in places, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Easington
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Questions from Easington
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SR8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
