About our bath re-enamelling in South Kelsey
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in South Kelsey and across Lincolnshire.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for South Kelsey. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Kelsey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in South Kelsey, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in South Kelsey
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover South Kelsey?
We do. Technicians travel to South Kelsey from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Repairing versus replacing in South Kelsey
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in South Kelsey
- Basins & shower trays

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos 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.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
