Bath re-enamelling in Sempringham, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sempringham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
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.
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.
FAQs for Sempringham
Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lincolnshire.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Sempringham?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
