Bath Re-enamelling in Lee Chapel
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Lee Chapel, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that will not shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Bath re-enamelling in Lee Chapel without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

What affects the price in Lee Chapel
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Lee Chapel
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Stains that will not shift
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Common questions in Lee Chapel
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you work in Lee Chapel?
We do. We send a technician to Lee Chapel for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Are there extra charges for Lee Chapel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
