Repairing versus replacing in Peakirk
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Peakirk
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Peakirk
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Peakirk use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PE6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
