What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Stainton without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stainton and across Middlesbrough.

The process

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Work done at your home or business
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What we are called out for in Stainton
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Other services in Stainton
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlord and trade work in Stainton
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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
