Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dimsdale
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Questions from Dimsdale
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Dimsdale. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dimsdale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
