Bath re-enamelling in Lillington, done in place
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, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Lillington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What else we do in Lillington
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
