How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 pay close attention there.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 fails, we can still put it right.
Ladywell questions
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Ladywell?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ladywell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Ladywell
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
