Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Bath re-enamelling in Pelton Fell, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Landlord and trade work in Pelton Fell
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we’re called out for in Pelton Fell
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Look out for any of the following:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Advice
Common questions in Pelton Fell
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Pelton Fell?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Repairing versus replacing in Pelton Fell
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pelton Fell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Usually one visit, start to finish
