Bath re-enamelling in Lutley

Bath re-enamelling in Lutley, done in place

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 several chips and rust patches and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

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.

What we’re called out for in Lutley

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Questions from Lutley

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Repair dripping taps early

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.

Why Lutley customers choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
