Bath re-enamelling at your home in Raithby
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically 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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- No need to remove anything

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Raithby questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are there extra charges for Raithby?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
