Bath re-enamelling at your home in Holbeach Bank
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and a coloured bath you want in white.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Holbeach Bank
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Holbeach Bank: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Holbeach Bank?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What affects the price in Holbeach Bank
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What your bath is made of matters
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
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common problems we fix in Holbeach Bank
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
