Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lockerley
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Lockerley questions
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SO51 postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Landlord and trade work in Lockerley
If you manage property in Lockerley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
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.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Lockerley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Lockerley
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
