Bath re-enamelling near Bamber Bridge

About our bath re-enamelling in Bamber Bridge

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coloured bath you want in white and stains that won’t shift.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bamber Bridge and across Lancashire.

Bamber Bridge questions

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

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

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

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

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.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bamber Bridge

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Several chips and rust patches

  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

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