How we handle bath re-enamelling in Lasswade
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and thin, worn enamel in places.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lasswade as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Lasswade questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Lasswade included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lasswade?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Lasswade. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
