Questions from Carr Cross
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
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.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Carr Cross. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sefton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Carr Cross
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
When to call us in Carr Cross
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
