Bath re-enamelling for Lissington homes

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Lissington

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

Bath re-enamelling in Lissington 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, and we take our time over it. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Questions from Lissington

Is it messy?

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

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What we are called out for in Lissington

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lissington, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
