Bath re-enamelling in Scothern without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Scothern
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Scothern.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you work in Scothern?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Scothern and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What we’re called out for in Scothern
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Stains that will not shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to care for the finish
- Who turns up on the day
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
