About our bath re-enamelling in Blackley
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 basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Blackley questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Blackley and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackley
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
