Bath re-enamelling at your home in Little Cawthorpe
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
In a village or hamlet like Little Cawthorpe, homes are frequently older cottages, farmhouses and barn conversions. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Bath re-enamelling in place avoids all of that.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Common problems we fix in Little Cawthorpe
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St Helen's Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again. Somewhere like Little Cawthorpe needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the bath re-enamelling, so there is no second trip.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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 until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Cawthorpe
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Little Cawthorpe
Can you restore the original baths in an older house in Little Cawthorpe?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. We’ll give you an honest view from photos.
Will you travel to Little Cawthorpe?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Do you come to Little Cawthorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Cawthorpe and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
