When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Clawthorpe
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace in Clawthorpe?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the entire UK
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
