Bath re-enamelling in Cherry Tree without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Blackburn with Darwen.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently 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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths

Questions from Cherry Tree
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cherry Tree
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Cherry Tree, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
