Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Garthorpe, North Lincolnshire
Bath re-enamelling across Garthorpe and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Bath re-enamelling in Garthorpe without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We are often asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and wear marks under the taps, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we are called out for in Garthorpe
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Garthorpe, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Garthorpe
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Garthorpe: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
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 cover Garthorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Garthorpe. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Garthorpe?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
