About our bath re-enamelling in Mautby
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlord and trade work in Mautby
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mautby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Mautby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Mautby
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Mautby
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you come to Mautby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mautby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
