Bath re-enamelling in Stockton, done in place

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. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Stockton

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Stockton

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Stockton?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Herefordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

Have chips seen to early
Repair dripping taps early
A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Never use suction bath mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

What the surface is made of
How much damage there is
How hard the colour is to match
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

One picture of the whole bath
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
What it’s made of, if you know
Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

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 several coats of new enamel finish.
We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

Make sure the area is dry
Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
