Bath re-enamelling at your home in Colsterworth
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. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Colsterworth questions
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
What affects the price in Colsterworth
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Colsterworth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NG33 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
