How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ribchester
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ribchester use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Common questions in Ribchester
Are there extra charges for Ribchester?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you come to Ribchester?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ribchester for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ribchester?
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
What it costs 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
