Bath re-enamelling in Golborne

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Golborne

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

About our bath re-enamelling in Golborne

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Golborne

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When to call us in Golborne

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Repair dripping taps early

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Should you replace it?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
