Bath Re-enamelling in Boston West
Our technicians come to Boston West for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Boston West
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

When to call us in Boston West
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it 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.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Boston West. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Boston West get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Boston West
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
