- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Roby
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Questions from Roby
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Roby. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Roby?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Liverpool and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
