Bath re-enamelling in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Look out for any of the following:
- Stains that will not shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
