How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Edgworth Moor

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, and we take our time over it. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coating lifting around the plughole.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Repair or replace in Edgworth Moor?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. 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.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bolton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Edgworth Moor

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Edgworth Moor?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Edgworth Moor and the rest of Bolton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, 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.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Edgworth Moor get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
