Bath re-enamelling in Lenton without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.

Lenton questions
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lenton?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lenton. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
