Bath re-enamelling in Lancaster, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, 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 Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace in Lancaster?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

- We leave the room as we found it

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that is rusted through
