How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stanhope
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We are often asked to fix several chips and rust patches and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace in Stanhope?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Stanhope. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Stanhope get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
Stanhope: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Stanhope. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you work in Stanhope?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stanhope for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
