Lyminge: your questions answered
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Repair or replace in Lyminge?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
What we are called out for in Lyminge
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

What else we do in Lyminge
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lyminge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Lyminge. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
