Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Bath re-enamelling in Lissett 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 suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and wear marks under the taps, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lissett as everywhere else we work.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Lissett questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Lissett?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repairing versus replacing in Lissett
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lissett
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Lissett
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
