Bath re-enamelling in Lawnswood, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Lawnswood get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Lawnswood
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Lawnswood: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Are there extra charges for Lawnswood?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What we do, step by step

How to prepare

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
