Bath re-enamelling in Chapel-en-le-Frith without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When to call us in Chapel-en-le-Frith
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before booking anyone

- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
