Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hepscott
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hepscott as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hepscott
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Hepscott. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Hepscott
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
