About our bath re-enamelling in Longford
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Longford
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Longford?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

What we are called out for in Longford
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Before booking anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Longford
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Longford. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
