Torrisholme: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Torrisholme?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Torrisholme
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Torrisholme
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
