Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Haltwhistle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Most clients in Haltwhistle get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Haltwhistle?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Common reasons people in Haltwhistle contact us include:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses 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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northumberland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
