Need bath re-enamelling in Moor Side?

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

About our bath re-enamelling in Moor Side

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Moor Side questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Landlord and trade work in Moor Side

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Moor Side. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
