FAQs for Bolton Green
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you come to Bolton Green?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Bolton Green. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bolton Green
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
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.
What we are called out for in Bolton Green
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bolton Green use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bolton Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
