- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Bath re-enamelling in Dalton without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Dalton: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Dalton.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common problems we fix in Dalton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Dalton
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
What affects the price in Dalton
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Dalton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
