Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Westwood, Oldham
We travel to Westwood for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that will not shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Bath re-enamelling in Westwood without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and lots of chips and rust spots.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Westwood?
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Common reasons people in Westwood contact us are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Common questions in Westwood
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Also in Westwood
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Westwood
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
