Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bleak Hey Nook
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oldham.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bleak Hey Nook. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry

Related advice
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should you replace it?
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Questions from Bleak Hey Nook
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
