Bath re-enamelling at your home in Stoneclough
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stoneclough
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.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stoneclough
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Stoneclough. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
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.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Stoneclough

FAQs for Stoneclough
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bury, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
