Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Brunswick, Greater Manchester
We travel to Brunswick for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Brunswick
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Brunswick
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Brunswick is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Brunswick?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Landlord and trade work in Brunswick
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
What affects the price in Brunswick
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Brunswick, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
