Bath re-enamelling at your home in Liverpool
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Liverpool.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Repair or replace in Liverpool?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What affects the price in Liverpool
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Liverpool. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Liverpool
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Common questions in Liverpool
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are there extra charges for Liverpool?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
