Bath re-enamelling in Greenbank, done in place
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’re often asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Respect the curing time we give you
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Common questions in Greenbank
Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?
The entire UK, including all of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
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.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
