How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fivelanes
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we’re called out for in Fivelanes
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, 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.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Fivelanes questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Fivelanes?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Fivelanes, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
