Bath re-enamelling in Moore

Moore questions

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What do you need from me?

Bath re-enamelling in Moore, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Moore. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WA4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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