Bath Re-enamelling for Firswood homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing for homes and businesses in Firswood and across Greater Manchester. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Firswood
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Firswood?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

FAQs for Firswood
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
