Common questions in Folkingham
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, 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, and the work is guaranteed.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Folkingham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Folkingham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Folkingham
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Wear marks under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
