How we handle bath re-enamelling in Falstone
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Falstone
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you cover Falstone?

When to call us in Falstone
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Common reasons people in Falstone contact us are:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to care for the finish
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

Repairing versus replacing in Falstone
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
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.
Advice
Repairs by material
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 what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
