Bath Re-enamelling for Metheringham homes
Our repair technicians come to Metheringham for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Bath re-enamelling in Metheringham without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Metheringham questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
When to call us in Metheringham
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Metheringham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
