About our bath re-enamelling in Clayton
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Clayton
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Clayton
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Clayton
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
