About our bath re-enamelling in Freckleton
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Freckleton: your questions answered
What do you need from me?

Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Freckleton.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Freckleton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Freckleton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Freckleton
- Cast iron baths

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
