About our bath re-enamelling in Messingham
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Everything repaired in place
- One-year guarantee on every repair
See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Messingham questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
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 our work is guaranteed for a year.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Messingham?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
