Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Urmston and across Trafford.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Urmston
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Urmston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Urmston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What we are called out for in Urmston
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that will not shift

- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t 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.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
