How we handle bath re-enamelling in Morton
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a coating lifting around the plughole.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Common problems we fix in Morton
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Morton
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Morton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Morton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
