Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hibaldstow
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hibaldstow and across North Lincolnshire.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Hibaldstow. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
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 quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hibaldstow?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Hibaldstow
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairs by material
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
