What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Scamblesby
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Scamblesby
Repairing versus replacing in Scamblesby
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Advice
What affects the price in Scamblesby
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Scamblesby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Scamblesby
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Scamblesby?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LN11 postcode.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
