Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
About our bath re-enamelling in Thorpe Common
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and several chips and rust patches.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thorpe Common and across Rotherham.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the 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 without moving it. 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, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
If you are in Thorpe Common and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Thorpe Common questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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

- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
