Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tyne Dock?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Look out for any of the following:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Before booking anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Common questions in Tyne Dock
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Tyne Dock?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE33 postcode.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
