How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What affects the price in Gatley
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Gatley
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Gatley.
Do you cover Gatley?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gatley and the rest of Stockport. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Gatley?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Several chips and rust patches
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended

What else we do in Gatley
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel 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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
