Bath Re-enamelling in Tameside

About bath re-enamelling in Tameside

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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.

Near you in Ashton-under-Lyne

We visit homes around Stamford Park, Church of St James and Ashton Sixth Form College and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Canon Johnson CofE Primary School (under half a mile west) and Prince of Orange pub (less than half a mile south-west). There is a railway station in Ashton-under-Lyne itself: Ashton-Under-Lyne station. A little further out are Ashton Arcades (under half a mile south) and Ashton St. Michael's (0.6 miles east). Not far away are Eastwood Nature Reserve and Boating lake.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Common problems we fix in Tameside

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Repair or replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
