Bath re-enamelling in Lane, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Lane
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What affects the price in Lane
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Lane
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Chips and rust in more than one place

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lane
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
