Landlord and trade work in Barton
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Bath re-enamelling in Barton without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Barton
What affects the price in Barton
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Barton. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 generally the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Barton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Barton
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Barton?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour-matched on site
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
