- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Noranside
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Noranside and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Questions from Noranside
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Noranside is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Noranside?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we cannot put right

- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
