How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Bath re-enamelling in Chapelgate without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can generally put it right, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Chapelgate and across Lincolnshire.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Common questions in Chapelgate
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Chapelgate
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chapelgate
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapelgate as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
