How we handle bath re-enamelling in Mossley
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What else we do in Mossley
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Repair or replace in Mossley?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
