Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tockholes
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and staining under the taps and around the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Tockholes: your questions answered
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Are there extra charges for Tockholes?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you cover the whole of Blackburn with Darwen?
The whole UK, including all of Blackburn with Darwen. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Do you work in Tockholes?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Tockholes from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tockholes?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Look out for these signs:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- 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 typically ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tockholes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a 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. 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.
