Bath re-enamelling for Lawnhead homes

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Lawnhead

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Lawnhead questions

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Lawnhead?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Lawnhead. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Lawnhead

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Lawnhead?

It depends on the damage, the material and access.
