Common questions in East Boldon
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in East Boldon?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE36 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in East Boldon.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Bath re-enamelling in East Boldon, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in East Boldon?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Comparing quotes
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- 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.
Repairing versus replacing in East Boldon
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Boldon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Boldon
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Tyneside and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
