Ewanrigg: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ewanrigg
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. We’re often asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Related advice
What affects the price in Ewanrigg
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ewanrigg. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
