Bath re-enamelling in Countesthorpe, done in place
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Repair or replace in Countesthorpe?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it

- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Countesthorpe?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

FAQs for Countesthorpe
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Countesthorpe. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
