About our bath re-enamelling in Moorhouse
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We are frequently asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Moorhouse, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
What affects the price in Moorhouse
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Moorhouse questions
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
