Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cudworth
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Barnsley.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Cudworth questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
