Bath re-enamelling in Carleton without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Repair or replace in Carleton?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Common questions in Carleton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work in Carleton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Carleton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Landlord and trade work in Carleton
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Carleton
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
