How we handle bath re-enamelling in Haconby
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace in Haconby?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can you quote from photos?

How it works
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. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Haconby?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
