About our bath re-enamelling in Laceby
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Laceby. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Laceby
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North East Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Laceby
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover Laceby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Laceby. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
