Bath re-enamelling in Caenby, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Caenby?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that won’t shift

Repair or replace in Caenby?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Caenby
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Caenby. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit

Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

- One picture of the whole bath
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LN8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

FAQs for Caenby
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
