Bath re-enamelling in North Moor, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We are frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
What we are called out for in North Moor
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in North Moor
Do you come to North Moor?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North Moor. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are there extra charges for North Moor?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Across the UK, so North Moor is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
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 entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
