About our bath re-enamelling in Lullington
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lullington and across Somerset.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
If you’re in Lullington and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we’re called out for in Lullington
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that won’t shift
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 generally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Common questions in Lullington
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
