Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cross Houses
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cross Houses. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Cross Houses?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Cross Houses

Common problems we fix in Cross Houses
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days

FAQs for Cross Houses
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
