About our bath re-enamelling in Stocksfield
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Stocksfield and across Northumberland.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Common questions in Stocksfield
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you come to Stocksfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stocksfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Stocksfield
If you manage property in Stocksfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Stocksfield
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
