When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Bath re-enamelling in Lake, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and stains that won’t shift.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Lake
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lake?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
