Bath re-enamelling in Lymm, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lymm

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WA13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lymm

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Warrington, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Do you need to take the bath out?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Common problems we fix in Lymm

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Our hiring checklist

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lymm. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
