Bath re-enamelling in Great Urswick, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
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 the part we put right.

Great Urswick: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Great Urswick?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Urswick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Landlord and trade work in Great Urswick
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Great Urswick
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your photos

When to call us in Great Urswick
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
