About our bath re-enamelling in Heaton Mersey
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Heaton Mersey questions
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Heaton Mersey
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Heaton Mersey. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Heaton Mersey, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
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.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Heaton Mersey?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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 next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
