About our bath re-enamelling in Swinderby
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repairing versus replacing in Swinderby
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Swinderby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
