Bath re-enamelling in North Hykeham, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
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.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we’re called out for in North Hykeham
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for any of the following:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Repair or replace in North Hykeham?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
