Scarth Hill: your questions answered
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Scarth Hill?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scarth Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

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 we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When to call us in Scarth Hill
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Before booking anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
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. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What else we do in Scarth Hill
Landlord and trade work in Scarth Hill
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Scarth Hill
