How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wistow
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wistow. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- 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 over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
FAQs for Wistow
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Wistow?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Wistow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
