Bath re-enamelling at your home in Smallburn
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Smallburn and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Smallburn
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace in Smallburn?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Smallburn
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
