Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we’re called out for in Intake
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Intake
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Intake and the rest of Doncaster. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What affects the price in Intake
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
