About our bath re-enamelling in Redcar
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Redcar as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Redcar
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Redcar. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Redcar
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Redcar?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
