How we handle bath re-enamelling in Huyton with Roby
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.
When to call us in Huyton with Roby
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Huyton with Roby
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you come to Huyton with Roby?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Huyton with Roby and the rest of Knowsley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
