Bath re-enamelling in Ashton, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the price in Ashton
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Ashton. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Ashton
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

What we are called out for in Ashton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
Common questions in Ashton
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
If you’re in Ashton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
