Trusted bath re-enamelling in Lisbon

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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 next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Bath re-enamelling in Lisbon without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lisbon

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Are there extra charges for Lisbon?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do the materials smell?

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

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.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Holes rusted through the metal

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

Materials we work on in Lisbon

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Lisbon?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
