Bath re-enamelling in High Crompton, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day. The room is left tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Crompton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

High Crompton: your questions answered
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in High Crompton
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in High Crompton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
