Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right.

Repair or replace in Scawsby?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Scawsby
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
