How we handle bath re-enamelling in Four Lane Ends

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What affects the price in Four Lane Ends

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When to call us in Four Lane Ends

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Common reasons people in Four Lane Ends contact us are:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
