Bath Re-enamelling for Lydiate Ash homes
We travel to Lydiate Ash for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lydiate Ash
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

When to call us in Lydiate Ash
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Lydiate Ash: your questions answered
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
