Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Liurbost without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Liurbost
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Liurbost. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Liurbost
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps

- Aftercare advice
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Liurbost: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
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.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
