Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling in Eccles Road without replacing anything

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Eccles Road

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Do you come to Eccles Road?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Eccles Road from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eccles Road use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
