Bath re-enamelling at your home in Walesby
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are staining under the taps and around the waste and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Walesby
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Common problems we fix in Walesby
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Walesby
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Walesby?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in Walesby and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlord and trade work in Walesby
If you manage property in Walesby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walesby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
