Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Foston on the Wolds as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Foston on the Wolds: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
