About our bath re-enamelling in Rain Shore
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and lots of chips and rust spots, we can normally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rochdale.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Rain Shore
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Rain Shore included. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Landlord and trade work in Rain Shore
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Other services in Rain Shore
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in Rain Shore
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
