- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Advice
Broughton questions
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Broughton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Broughton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Broughton?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broughton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
