DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 pictures.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Staintondale
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common questions in Staintondale
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Are there extra charges for Staintondale?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Staintondale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Staintondale?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Staintondale
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
