Bath re-enamelling at your home in High Moorsley
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in High Moorsley
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
FAQs for High Moorsley
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
