Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Bath re-enamelling in Hickleton, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Hickleton: your questions answered
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Hickleton and the rest of Doncaster. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When to call us in Hickleton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Hickleton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
