Bath re-enamelling in Golcar without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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 what we repair.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Golcar as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we’re called out for in Golcar
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that will not shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
