What we do, step by step

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Riseholme
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Riseholme and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace in Riseholme?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Riseholme questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lincolnshire.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Riseholme. Prices do not change with location.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Riseholme?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
