Repair or replace in Balmerlawn?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Balmerlawn clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Balmerlawn
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. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When to call us in Balmerlawn
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Balmerlawn. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

FAQs for Balmerlawn
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Balmerlawn included. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
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.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
