About our bath re-enamelling in Goldthorpe
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and stains that won’t shift.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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 is the part we put right.
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.
What we’re called out for in Goldthorpe
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Goldthorpe questions
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Goldthorpe?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Goldthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
