Bath re-enamelling in Licswm without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and lots of chips and rust spots.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Licswm

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Licswm. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Licswm

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to care for the finish

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Licswm questions

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Flintshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
