Questions from Haughton
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you work in Haughton?
We do. Technicians travel to Haughton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Bath re-enamelling in Haughton, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Haughton and across Cheshire West and Chester.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Haughton. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CW6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

Common problems we fix in Haughton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
