Bath re-enamelling in Dodworth without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dodworth
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Barnsley and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What else we do in Dodworth
Dodworth questions
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Dodworth
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
