Bath re-enamelling in Unsworth, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Common questions in Unsworth
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Unsworth and the rest of Bury. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
