Bath re-enamelling in North Scale without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coating lifting around the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Common problems we fix in North Scale
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Stains that will not shift
- Wear marks under the taps

Common questions in North Scale
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in North Scale.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in North Scale
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
