Bath re-enamelling in Denton without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Denton as everywhere else we work.

Common problems we fix in Denton
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that will not shift
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Denton
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
