Bath re-enamelling in Broughton, done in place
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Broughton. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Broughton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
