How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath re-enamelling in South Rauceby, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NG34 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

FAQs for South Rauceby

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Are there extra charges for South Rauceby?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Never use suction bath mats

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What we’re called out for in South Rauceby

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
