Bath re-enamelling in West Boldon without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in West Boldon, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath usually 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. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why West Boldon clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work

West Boldon questions
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in West Boldon?

What we are called out for in West Boldon
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
