Bath re-enamelling in Lydgate, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Lydgate
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Lydgate
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Common reasons people in Lydgate contact us include:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
Before you book anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
Questions from Lydgate
Are there extra charges for Lydgate?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
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.
