Repairing versus replacing in Gurnett
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Gurnett
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Common questions in Gurnett
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover Gurnett?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Gurnett from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we’re called out for in Gurnett
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
