Bath re-enamelling in Bucknall without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Landlord and trade work in Bucknall
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow most of the day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Questions from Bucknall
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
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 pictures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bucknall. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
