Bath re-enamelling in Eston, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Redcar and Cleveland.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Eston
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover Eston?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Eston. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Eston.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
