Landlord and trade work in Lambourn Woodlands
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Bath re-enamelling in Lambourn Woodlands, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Lambourn Woodlands
What information do you need?

Repairing versus replacing in Lambourn Woodlands

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
What we are called out for in Lambourn Woodlands
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
