The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access

Bath re-enamelling in Thrintoft without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thrintoft
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairing versus replacing in Thrintoft
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Repair dripping taps early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Questions from Thrintoft
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Thrintoft.
Do you come to Thrintoft?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thrintoft. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Thrintoft, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
