Bath re-enamelling in Buglawton, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

When to call us in Buglawton

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
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.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common questions in Buglawton
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Buglawton?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
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 generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
