Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Lowbands without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What else we do in Lowbands
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Lowbands
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover Lowbands?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lowbands for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lowbands as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
