How we handle bath re-enamelling in Irwell Vale
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’re often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repair or replace in Irwell Vale?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

When to call us in Irwell Vale
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Irwell Vale: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Bury. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Irwell Vale and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Landlord and trade work in Irwell Vale
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
