What affects the price in Swan Green
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not 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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Swan Green
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WA16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Swan Green
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Swan Green questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
