Bath re-enamelling at your home in Trafford

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Cost

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

For rail, the closest station is Navigation Road station, roughly 1.9 miles south-west.

The countryside around Sale includes Birch Moss Covert Nature Reserve and Unicorn Grocery.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically 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.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

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 just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What affects the price in Trafford

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Trafford. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Trafford

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you cover the entire of Trafford?

The whole UK, including all of Trafford. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
