How we handle bath re-enamelling in Swarthmoor
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Swarthmoor. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Swarthmoor and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Swarthmoor
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Swarthmoor?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LA12 postcode.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace in Swarthmoor?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

- Normally one visit, start to finish
