Bath re-enamelling in Middleton, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Middleton: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Middleton?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Middleton included. Travel is included in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Middleton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Middleton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Before booking anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Middleton. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
For a price in Middleton, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
