Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bolton
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Bolton
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Bolton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
