About our bath re-enamelling in Wintringham
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What affects the price in Wintringham
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Wintringham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wintringham
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
