Bath re-enamelling in Lawrence Weston, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Lawrence Weston

Do you cover Lawrence Weston?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lawrence Weston. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

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?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Repairing versus replacing in Lawrence Weston

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Common problems we fix in Lawrence Weston

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lawrence Weston. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Lawrence Weston get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
