Bath re-enamelling at your home in Mickle Trafford
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white.
In a village or hamlet like Mickle Trafford, homes are frequently older cottages, farmhouses and barn conversions. Many have heavy cast iron baths or baths in awkward spots, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Repairing in place avoids that.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on

- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Mickle Trafford questions
I let a flat near Bache station. Can you help between tenants?
Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price.
Is it worth repairing old baths in a period home in Mickle Trafford?
Usually, yes. Older baths are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we’d recommend.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Mickle Trafford?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Mickle Trafford. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Common problems we fix in Mickle Trafford
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St Peter's Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare. In a village or hamlet like Mickle Trafford, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the bath re-enamelling works exactly as anywhere else.
- 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.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
