Bath re-enamelling in Throckenholt, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for lots of chips and rust spots and a coating lifting around the plughole, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Throckenholt, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Throckenholt
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Throckenholt. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Throckenholt
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
Throckenholt questions
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
We work UK-wide, so Throckenholt is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
