Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lumb
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Lumb customers choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lumb. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Lumb
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place

Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lancashire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lumb, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
