Bath re-enamelling for Brookhouse homes

Bath re-enamelling in Brookhouse without replacing anything

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

Should you replace it?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Brookhouse

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work in Brookhouse?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Brookhouse and the rest of Cheshire East. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What we are called out for in Brookhouse

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive
