Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hoofield?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hoofield
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Hoofield?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hoofield
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Do you work in Hoofield?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hoofield and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
