Bath re-enamelling for Bilsby, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bilsby
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and thin, worn enamel in places.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

Landlord and trade work in Bilsby
If you manage property in Bilsby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Bilsby
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Repair or replace in Bilsby?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
