Repair or replace in Firsby?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Firsby?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What else we do in Firsby
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Work for landlords and builders
