What we are called out for in Shaw Mills
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Stains that won’t shift

About our bath re-enamelling in Shaw Mills
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in Shaw Mills
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
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.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What affects the price in Shaw Mills
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
