Bath re-enamelling for Bolton Low Houses homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bolton Low Houses

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We’re frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Repair or replace in Bolton Low Houses?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 photos, as it can add time.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
