About our bath re-enamelling in Tickshill

Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tickshill
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Questions from Tickshill
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Tickshill?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in Tickshill and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we are called out for in Tickshill
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Most customers in Tickshill get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
