Bath re-enamelling in Lenton Abbey

About our bath re-enamelling in Lenton Abbey

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lenton Abbey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lenton Abbey

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

What affects the price in Lenton Abbey

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lenton Abbey

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover the entire of Nottingham?

All of Nottingham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
