How we handle bath re-enamelling in Lonemore

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lonemore

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Lonemore

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Lonemore?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Repair or replace in Lonemore?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most clients in Lonemore get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Repairs by material

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’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
