Questions from Adswood

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Stockport.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

What we’re called out for in Adswood

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Wear marks under the taps

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlord and trade work in Adswood

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adswood as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
