How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ferryhill Station
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ferryhill Station. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Common questions in Ferryhill Station
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Ferryhill Station?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
