How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cleethorpes
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North East Lincolnshire.

What affects the price in Cleethorpes
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Cleethorpes
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it
- Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Cleethorpes questions
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cleethorpes use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
