About our bath re-enamelling in Bowdon
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Repair or replace in Bowdon?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
