How we handle bath re-enamelling in Torver
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can typically put it right.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- One price list for the entire UK
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Torver, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Torver
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Are there extra charges for Torver?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

We cover the entire UK, including Torver and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you come to Torver?
We do. We send a technician to Torver for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
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’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Common problems we fix in Torver
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
