How we handle bath re-enamelling in High Hesket

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, 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.

Common problems we fix in High Hesket
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

- Whether the price covers travel

- Whether they match the colour on site
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What else we do in High Hesket
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in High Hesket
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
