About our bath re-enamelling in Lowther
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. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lowther use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Lowther: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Lowther?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lowther and the rest of Cumbria. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What else we do in Lowther
Can I fix it myself?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
