Bath re-enamelling in Lichfield without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What we are called out for in Lichfield

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Lichfield

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long is the bath unusable?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Lichfield included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lichfield

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

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

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lichfield, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
