What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When to call us in Shopwyke
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Questions from Shopwyke
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Shopwyke?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What affects the price in Shopwyke
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material
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.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PO20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
