Repairing versus replacing in Lincoln
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Lincoln
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Lincoln
Lincoln and the surrounding area
Lincoln is about 39 miles east of Sheffield, in Lincolnshire. From the centre of Lincoln to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. Lincoln is one of 732 towns and villages in Lincolnshire where we work. We work right across the region, from Lincoln to Leeds (about 58 miles away).
Our visits in LN6, LN2, LN1 and LN5 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. Jobs here include addresses on St Mark's Square, High Street and St Benedicts Square and the roads around them. With the A46 and A57 close by, Lincoln is simple for us to get to. Close by, we cover New Boultham (1 mile south-west), Boultham (1 mile south), Boultham Moor (1 mile south-west), Canwick (1 mile south-east) and Swanpool (1 mile south-west).

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Lincoln questions
Are there extra charges for Lincoln?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your LN6 postcode.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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 next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lincoln. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
