Bath re-enamelling in Fulwood, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Fulwood?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What else we do in Fulwood
Fulwood: your questions answered
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What affects the price in Fulwood
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
