You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CF31 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Bath re-enamelling in Newcastle Higher without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newcastle Higher
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Newcastle Higher, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Newcastle Higher: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are there extra charges for Newcastle Higher?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Newcastle Higher?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newcastle Higher. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Same prices wherever you are

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before 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.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Newcastle Higher?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Common reasons people in Newcastle Higher contact us are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

- How long it needs to cure
