Bath re-enamelling in Gleadless Townend without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

The whole UK, including all of Sheffield. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
What affects the price in Gleadless Townend
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
