Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lintz
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Lintz questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Gateshead. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lintz use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A bath split right through the body
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Repair or replace in Lintz?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- Same prices wherever you are

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
