DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Brockholes
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and lots of chips and rust spots, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
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.
What affects the price in Brockholes
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Brockholes. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

Questions from Brockholes
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
