We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Newburn
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about lots of chips and rust spots and a coating lifting around the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Questions from Newburn
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
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.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Newburn included. Travel is included in the price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Newburn

Common problems we fix in Newburn
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
