Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lane Head
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include a peeling or bubbling previous coating and several chips and rust patches, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Lane Head
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lane Head. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
FAQs for Lane Head
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
When to call us in Lane Head
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
