Bath Re-enamelling for Sawtry homes
Our repair technicians come to Sawtry for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
About our bath re-enamelling in Sawtry
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sawtry and across Cambridgeshire.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Sawtry
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Most clients in Sawtry get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sawtry. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
