Bath re-enamelling in Trub without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re frequently asked to fix wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rochdale.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Trub
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
FAQs for Trub
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What else we do in Trub
What affects the price in Trub
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Trub. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Rochdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
