Bath re-enamelling in Penwortham without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common problems we fix in Penwortham
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches

Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Penwortham
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Landlord and trade work in Penwortham
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
