Bath re-enamelling at your home in Budworth Heath

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. We’re often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Budworth Heath

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

FAQs for Budworth Heath

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do you come to Budworth Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Budworth Heath. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CW9 postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
