Your questions about bath re-enamelling in High Grange
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across County Durham.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in High Grange?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Bath re-enamelling in High Grange without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are often asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in High Grange
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we are called out for in High Grange
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that won’t shift
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What affects the price in High Grange
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in High Grange, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
