How we handle bath re-enamelling in New Houghton
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. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

New Houghton: your questions answered
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.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in New Houghton
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Look out for these signs:
- Stains that will not shift
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
