Bath re-enamelling in Mattersey Thorpe, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and several chips and rust patches, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mattersey Thorpe and across Nottinghamshire.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Mattersey Thorpe
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Mattersey Thorpe questions
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
