How we handle bath re-enamelling in Middlestone
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Middlestone?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Common questions in Middlestone
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Middlestone?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Middlestone and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Middlestone
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Middlestone, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
