Bath re-enamelling in Ebnal, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire West and Chester.

Common problems we fix in Ebnal
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Questions from Ebnal
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work in Ebnal?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ebnal from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
