Bath re-enamelling in Keresley, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Keresley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlord and trade work in Keresley
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Keresley
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Keresley?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Keresley

What we are called out for in Keresley
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coating lifting around the plughole
