Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

What else we do in Osmaston
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Osmaston?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Chips and rust in more than one place

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in Osmaston
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Osmaston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Osmaston, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
