How we handle bath re-enamelling in Chester Moor
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Chester Moor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chester Moor as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes most of the day, and you are 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.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price

FAQs for Chester Moor
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Chester Moor
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Chester Moor?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Look out for any of the following:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
Before booking anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
What affects the price in Chester Moor
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chester Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
