How we handle bath re-enamelling in Carr Hall
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We are often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
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’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Questions from Carr Hall
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?
We cover the whole UK, including Carr Hall and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Carr Hall
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Landlords, agents and businesses in Carr Hall
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carr Hall use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Carr Hall?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
