Bath re-enamelling in Hillsborough without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Hillsborough
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hillsborough?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
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.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top 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 a new finish makes them look new again.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Hillsborough, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your S6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
